St. Alphonsus Liguori is a Stewardship Parish located Prospect Heights, Illinois.  With over 1500 families enrolled, dozens of active ministries serving the Parish and the community, and a Blue Ribbon pre-K through 8th grade school, St. Al's offers a welcoming, caring family for Catholics in the area.

In the words of our pastor, Father Curt Lambert, "Saint Alphonsus Liguori is a Catholic community of faith-filled people journeying together as we seek the presence of God in our midst. We believe that Jesus has brought us together for a purpose.  We ask His guidance and grace to be all that we are called to be."  We are grateful that the Lord continues to draw us together to celebrate the Eucharist and build community.

The Parish owes its existence to a determined widow, Rose Weinert, who spearheaded a community effort to form it over fifty years ago.  The first Mass on January 15, 1956 was celebrated  in a basement chapel furnished with donated chairs, kneelers, and altar rails. Six months later, the first pastor was appointed and the congregation set its sights on the construction of a school and convent that was dedicated in September of 1958.  By then, 480 families were enrolled in the Parish.  Read more about the history of the Parish.
